Directed and co-written by Guy Ritchie, this action-comedy tells the incredible untold true story of the first-ever special forces organization formed during WWII by UK Prime Minister Winston Churchill and a small group of military officials including author Ian Fleming. The top secret combat unit, composed of a motley crew of rogues and mavericks led by Gus March-Phillipps (Henry Cavill), goes on a daring mission against the Nazis using entirely unconventional and utterly "ungentlemanly" fighting techniques. Ultimately, the task force's audacious approach changed the course of the war and laid the foundation for the British SAS and modern black ops warfare.

I think of it as Kingsmen on Steroids! Granted it’s not perfect, There were moments that were convolutedly fruitless but ultimately if you believe in popcorn 🍿 nonsense action then it’s a must watch!
I really wanted to like this movie. It has a very fun vibe to it... and then the story was hijacked by a fabricated killing of many many Germans in a twist that wasn't even factual. Why is the shoot-em-up more important than the fascinating history that really happened?
There’s characters in this story with historical names but it hews so closely to the unrealistic choreographed genre of violence coming from Hollywood today that you come away not believing it.
Guy Titchie always makes great gilms. If you like WW2 movies and guy Ritchie films you will love this movie. Probably one of my favorite guy Ritchie ones cause it’s definitely a unique take on WW2, reminds me a bit of Rogue heroes on Amazon which i also highly recommend, obviously not historically accurate like rogue heroes is.
Great movie. Saw it twice in theaters. Surprised it’s out already but no complaints. Enjoyed the Witcher & Reacher having a fun time. Felt a little like a Man from U.N.C.L.E sequel that we will hopefully/someday/never get.
Seriously can people just watch movies and leave politics, the movie was action and had a great plot
Great movie fun comedic ignore the fools
